  hi all,
              I have few problem while trying to create new domain using,
xm create xmexample1 -c

the error message is
"Error Creating Domain:vbd:Segment phy:/dev/hda3 is in writable use"


the details of xmexample1 file are
kernel = "/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.30-xenU"
memory = 64
name = "GuestLinux-2.4.30"
disk = [ 'phy:/dev/hda3,hda1,r',
         'phy:/dev/hda4,hda2,r' ]
root="/dev/hda1 ro "
extra = "4"

Red Hat Linux installation is on /dev/hda3 and swap space is on /dev/hda4
The details of grub file are:
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,1)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

         com1=115200,8n1 noht console=com1
  module /vmlinuz-2.4-xen0  ro root=/dev/hda3  console=tty0



Can anyone advise me what is the source of problem?

Make sure that the filesystem isn't mounted on some directory in dom0.  Also, make sure any other process isn't using it...
